Believe me, the design team (no more than four brave musketeers!) was heartbroken when we had to let go of this area. We had several quests already in place and we were really trying to create another Broken Valley, only more coherent and story-driven. We were rather well on our way, but it became clear at some point we would never be able to finish it properly and fill a city like Aleroth as well. Quite a shame really, it did look fantastic ... The swamp with warring goblin tribes; the wizard tower; the witch’s fort; the Black Ring battlements ...
Alas!
That's such a shame! It sounds like it would've been wonderful, even more so now that I've seen the concept described as "another Broken Valley"...
